What patients say about Western Dental & Orthodontics

Across 454 Google reviews, Western Dental & Orthodontics averages 3.9 stars, and the written comments are more telling than the score. Most of the praise centers on friendly staff, and reviewers keep returning to a clean, modern office and how the team treats children as well. The procedures people mention by name include orthodontics, which is useful if that is what brought you here.

The reviews are not uniform though. Friendly staff draws the most complaints, and asking about it upfront usually prevents surprises. Before booking a bigger procedure, ask the front desk for a written estimate and a coverage check; reviews speak to the experience, not the bill.

I had a very good service here, front desk is humble and helpful even when I wasn’t their client yet they explained to me all the steps I need to do with my insurance and best and fastest way to treat me. The doctor and personal in general was understanding, caring and did a good job. Office is clean and nice, not too many people, easy to schedule appointments

Today was not bad at all, I have no complaints and they were patient with me. I thank this team so much, because the last time I was here in 2000 was not good. I would recommend this team to everyone I know.
